Nikki Hayfield, Annukka Lahti
Annukka Lahti is a Doctoral Student (Gender Studies) in the Department of Social Sciences and Philosophy at the University of Jyväskylä, Finland1. Before starting her doctoral studies, she taught psychology at The Open University of the University of Jyväskylä. In her Doctoral studies, she explores how bisexuality – which is persistently culturally associated with temporariness, multiple partners and promiscuity – fits, fights and expands the normative cultural understandings of relationships. Her research specifically examines how a sample of Finnish bisexual women and their (ex-)partners of various genders negotiate bisexuality in their relationships, as psychosocial subjects. She considers how intersecting cultural constructions of relationships, genders and (bi)sexualities shape those negotiations and analyses her interview data through a psychosocial lens. Her analysis shows that negotiations around bisexuality and relationships are made not only through discursive regulation, but are also shaped in interaction with affective, non-rational psychic dimensions of being in a relationship. She has recently published on bisexual women’s and their partners’ relationships in Feminism & Psychology and has a number of papers under review. She is currently finishing her dissertation and plans to start her post-doctoral research project focusing on the separation experiences of LGBTIQ persons. Nikki Hayfield had an email discussion with Annukka over the summer to find out more about her research and interest in bisexuality.

Research into trans people’s sexuality is growing, yet research into the sexuality of cisgender partners, in the context of their partners’ transition, is sparse. This project presents an in-depth narrative analysis of six cisgender women partnered with trans and non-binary identified individuals. The participants ranged between 35 and 71 years old, were all UK residents and held a range of sexual identities. The findings are presented through the collective narratives the participants told. The main story plot that emerged was ‘the quest to stay together’ which is told through sub plots of identity, the body and invisibility. The analysis includes the ways in which narrators drew on, and/or challenged, social discourses of gender and sexuality and also performative aspects of identity. Clinical implications include the importance of therapists enquiring about what a sexual identity means for the individual and the value of addressing the topics of loss and invisibility in therapeutic work with this client group.

We conducted a replication of our previous research on female bisexuality using a male target to identify when heterosexual participants would label a man bisexual or heterosexual based on his engaging in either same-sex or cross-sex sexual behaviours or emotions. Whereas, in our previous research we found that it took very intimate or repeated sexual behaviour before participants would label a historically heterosexual woman bisexual, we found that a man was labelled bisexual for almost all same-sex sexual behaviours and emotions. In a second study, we found that historically heterosexual males were rated higher on a sexual continuum (1=heterosexual; 10=gay/lesbian) than females for the identical same-sex sexual behaviours suggesting confirmation of the ‘one and done’ rule. However, the mean ratings for both sexes fell within the bisexual range. The findings are discussed in relation to a more nuanced understanding of the one and done rule, specifically, and in terms of bisexual erasure in general.
